RE: Changing negative port number to VNC server

2001-09-25 Thread Andrew van der Stock
I think I know what you want to do. The trick is that the port number is internally represented an signed 32 bit number, so can be represented in a two's complement manner. Change the port number to the equivalent large decimal number. -5879 is E909 which is 4294961417 Andrew -Origina

Changing negative port number to VNC server

2001-09-25 Thread FOO JOUNG WEE
Hi. I want to use port 21 as the port for VNC server. But I am unable to change the port number to -5879. I can only key in positive port number. However at the VNC viewer, I'm able to change it to -5879 (5900 - 5879 = 21). I've serched the FAQ and documentation and couldn't find anything on this

RE: WinVNC Password :(

2001-09-25 Thread Andrew van der Stock
Bader, This is bad. The problem for you is that the registry permissions are too weak as well as the ability for any joe bloggs to decode the password. Did you know that you only need WinVNC's own source code and a compiler to reverse the password? Additionally, with a copy of WinVNC server, it i

Character mode windows giving trouble with VNC Commander

2001-09-25 Thread John Clegg
I am using VNC Commander running on a Windows 2000 SP1 box. If I connect to an NT4SP6 box all is fine until I run a CMD prompt, then I find that keypresses are not transmitted to that window properly - it seems as if about 1 in 3 keypresses is successful. Everything works fine outside that window

I don't have a solution for you but rather some questions which, if you can answer them, may help you get closer to a solution. 1) First, the easy one ... from the client at work, when you tell the viewer what to connect to, you are using the IP address of the WAN side of your home firewall, aren

Sure this can be done, But only with windows terminal server. All other windows 9x/me/nt/2k have only one desktop, and no virtual desktops. If you write a virtual desktop application, then you should be able to modify vnc for this. But winvnc was not built for this purpose. Const (tightvnc) is pl
